What Is the New DOL Overtime Rule for 2024?

Overtime pay is a fundamental element of labor law, ensuring that employees are fairly compensated when they work beyond their standard 40 hours a week. It’s designed to protect workers from overwork and to encourage employers to hire additional staff if needed rather than relying on excessive hours from existing employees. Starting in 2024, the Department of Labor (DOL) is implementing significant updates to the overtime rule, potentially impacting millions of employees and the businesses that employ them.
